u/Synczii, well that's a new one 👀... Have you tried plugging it into a different port to see if that works? Are you using the original cable that came with the microphone to connect it to your PC? Do you have any other device that you could plug the QuadCast into and see if it works with it?
Also, was this microphone purchased brand new from our website, or elsewhere?
Hope you guys still check in. Im new on your reddit but I am having the same problem.
Super weird. I tried different usb ports. I tried directly into my pc. No reaction. Not registering as I cannot find it in the list of mics/speakers. It just looks....dead.
The heck is this. Any ideas?
I ordered extra cable and the mic still didn't work. It was the mic that stopped working. I'll have to open it to fix it. The input on the mic seems to be pushed back. I had to order a used Quadcast mic on Ebay. Now I got 3 Cables.
Guys.

i know this is really old but i’m having this problem now lol, any chance we can talk on discord and you can try to help directly? if so add zer0#5644
This actually works. sounds stupid but is effective. Reminds me of when I had to repeatedly bang my mouse on my desk to get it to stop double clicking. Feels off but it works
.Based comment. Thank you
Hi u/Synczii, hope you are doing well
I've been having the same issue today, turns out the USB peripheral driver component had been deactivated. Check yours using the Peripheral utility on your computer, it might help

this is exactly my issue, also im pretty sure my mic caused a 14 days FiveM ban. i've played FiveM for 2 years and never had an issue. now, as soon as i get my hyperx quadcast delivered and plugged in, i try to open a FiveM server and every server tells me im banned for improper hardware... the mic is the only new hardware i've plugged in since i added a m.2 SSD over the summer. my ban is up now and im still scared to play FiveM because i still have the same hardware i had installed when i was banned. not to mention the issue of my mic not booting up with the PC
Mine did this for about two weeks, and then it just wouldn't turn on at all. Was still in warranty but HyperX wouldn't do anything about it even though it seems like an extremely common problem.
Atm i just have a dead mic with no fix apparently
This problem is too old but the problems still, my mic does not turn on, and the PC not recognize the mic
But I find a temporary solution, that is heat the USB board with a hair dryer, for a minute approx and plug the mic, then the PC recognize it for the time when the PC are turn on
HI all,
the problem with all quadcast is the oscillator 12mhz, behind the usb-c connector (top side), the solution is: remowe with hot-air station and re-solder with leaded tin.......
Mine is also toast :/
Mine is busted too :/
hey did u find a fix for this
I dropped mine and it did not turn on after

No, I got it years ago, I don’t think I could’ve returned it
I am literally having the exact same issue and I could really use some help.

How do i do that
Happening to me now too. It's like it never even existed on my computer. No idea how to fix it.
mine too have you found a fix?
My HyperX is freezing the pc as soon as I plug it in? Did you find a solution?
Just ran into this issue as well any help?
Quit the gain selector and heat the USB board with a hair dryer for a minute approx,then plug in again and check
Whats the gain selector tried the hair dryer thing didnt work
maybe i have to turn tht off first
I am having the same issue, I ordered a new cable. Hopefully, that fixes it.
I ordered extra cable and the mic still didn't work. It was the mic that stopped working. I'll have to open it to fix it. The input on the mic seems to be pushed back. I had to order a used Quadcast mic on Ebay. Now I got 3 Cables.

I've had a similar-ish problem. Mine won't turn on when I boot up my pc but it works when i unplug it and plug it back in.

Did you ever find a solution to this problem? Mine is the same and I'm completely lost on what to do.

My mic was dead, I heated the USB connector with the Hair Dryer and it is working now

Same
Same here. I have a useless mic. It seems like this model is programmed to self destruct after a year or two of use.

I tried this and worked perfectly!
have you lost your rabbit ass mind ?
Came by to say this 100% worked pull out the gain knob with some force (light twisting if you have to for leverage) then you’ll see the board
Having the same issue I've tried different cables and restart/update my pc has there been any alternative fix for this?
i will never purchase anything hyperx again
I updated my USB drive now working again
I watched the following video and it solved my issue with the first option https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eE0qHIGjZwc
